JoHanjun Architects’ second-prize proposal for Seoul’s Dongdaemun-gu Community Hall redevelopment imagines a lantern among the trees, its translucent envelope revealing the rhythm of an exposed structural frame. A stage opening onto the park softens the threshold between architecture and landscape, while a planted courtyard and a vertical promenade extend the public realm across multiple levels, setting the scene for performance and everyday encounters.

동대문구 구민회관 부지 복합개발(문화시설)사업 설계공모에서 2등작으로 선정되었습니다.
프로젝트서울 공모사이트를 통해 동대문구 구민회관 부지 복합개발 사업 공모전에 참여하였지만 아쉽게 당선의 문턱을 넘지 못했습니다. 처음에는 287팀의 참가등록을 보고 숨이 막혔지만 태어나고 자랐던 동대문구에 의미 있는 흔적을 남기고 싶었습니다.
너무나도 매력적인 환경을 가진 사이트의 잠재력을 우리 나름의 방식으로 찾기위한 노력이 있었고 정말 이렇게만 지어진다면 너무나도 좋겠다라는 생각을 가지면서 작업하였습니다. 그러나 공모를 완주하고 난 뒤 접수된 75개의 작품수와 업체명을 보고 놀라기도 하였기 때문에 행운(?)으로 기대해 보았습니다.
느슨한 경계, 입체로서의 확장이라는 키워드를 중심으로 기본계획을 결정하는데 많은 시간이 걸렸고 준비하는 과정동안 너무나도 즐겁게 토론하고 협업하였습니다. 공원을 향한 무대를 통해 공연장과 공원과의 경계를 느슨하게 하여 공연이 없을때도 공연장이 공원의 일부가 되도록하는 배치안은 우리 계획안의 핵심이였습니다. 그리고 도시의 가로가 건물 내부로 이어져 입체가로라는 개방영역을 두어 항상 시민들에게 열려있는 시설이 되기를 바랬습니다.
이는 상당히 챌린징(challenging)한 제안일거라고는 생각하였지만 과감하게 도전하였고 적어도 의미있는 시도가 되고 공공건축의 가치와 수준을 한단계 높일 수 있는 도전이 아닐까라고 생각하였습니다. 심사과정에서 핵심 아이디어의 구현과 단점들이 보완이 되었을때 구축 되는 미래의 결과물에 투표해 주기를 기대하기도 했습니다.
우연히인지 지난주 다녀온 중국 여행에서 상하이에 지어진 스노헤타의 그랜드 오페라하우스 공연장의 무대를 보고 한번 더 결과에 대한 아쉬움을 가지기도 하였지만 결과를 겸허히 받아들이고 우리가 부족했던 것들을 다시한번 되새기며 다음을 준비하려고 합니다.

Make Architects’ proposal for Ulster University’s Teaching and Student Centre reinterprets Derry~Londonderry’s historic towers and gables through three interconnected pavilions gathered around a garden courtyard. Developed with McAdam Design and guided by Passivhaus principles, the scheme brings together warm terracotta tones, tactile interiors and generous spaces for learning and gathering, offering a welcoming new gateway to campus life.

Our teaching and learning hub for @ulsteruni has been granted planning!
The design sets three interconnected pavilions around a garden courtyard with landscaped terraces, a secluded setting that nods to the historic parkland of the Derry~Londonderry campus. The massing takes its cue from local heritage, with an emphasis on verticality that echoes the towers and gables of the neighbouring Magee Conservation Area.
Inside are flexible lecture and seminar spaces, computer labs and student services, with social learning spaces threaded throughout. Our interiors concept leaves the steelwork exposed to celebrate the building’s engineering, set against cork and timber for tactile comfort and a layered palette of terracotta and greens informed by spatial psychology research.
Built to Passivhaus principles, and positioned along the western edge of the campus with a bridge link to the library, it will give the university a new front door.
Designed with @mcadamarch as Integrated Consultant Team Lead.

PRSPKT Bureau of Architecture`s design for Dualist in Ufa pairs a striking residential tower with a stepped street frontage, responding to sunlight requirements while respecting the scale of neighbouring buildings. Green façades, gold-toned accents and richly detailed colonnades lend the scheme a distinctive character, while landscaped courtyard spaces, connecting passages and carefully integrated lighting create an inviting setting for everyday life.

В данном посте хотим наглядно показать фишки и этапы проектирования нашего нового проекта многоквартирного жилого дома «Дуалист» в городе Уфа по улице Зорге.
Основная форма высотной жилой секции здания обусловлена инсоляцией и бытовыми разрывами на существующей сформировавшейся территории. Получившийся ступенчатый фасад задает динамику форме, при определенных ракурсах создает интересную визуальную игру, цепляющую взгляд.
Обьем по улице Зорге запроектирован разноуровневым - от 4 до 6 этажей, в поддержание масштаба окружающей застройки, но в общей концепции ЖК.
Пронизывающие секции галереи и проходы, делают жилой комплекс комфортным и интересным для пользователей территории: там интересно гулять, фотографироваться, разглядывать детали.
Так же мы постарались поработать над архитектурной подсветкой здания для усиления эффекта и общего впечатления.

ID Architecture’s proposed single-storey home in the Lincolnshire Wolds sits quietly among mature gardens, its textured stone walls and dark pitched roofs framing views across a tranquil pond. Expansive glazing welcomes the changing light, while generous living spaces and three en-suite bedrooms offer a restful setting where daily life unfolds in close conversation with the landscape.

Our latest bespoke residential project has now been submitted for planning, having been carefully developed to address the stringent requirements of Paragraph H011 (formerly Paragraph 84e) of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). The policy presents an opportunity to deliver truly exceptional homes in isolated rural locations, where outstanding architectural design and a sensitive response to the landscape are fundamental to the proposal.
The scheme comprises a contemporary, single-storey home that brings together distinctive architecture, high environmental performance and a considered relationship with its rural setting.
Carefully arranged to maximise the exceptional yet private views across an existing pond and mature landscaped gardens, the home incorporates three generously proportioned bedrooms, each with en-suite facilities, alongside open-plan living spaces and a dedicated home office.
The proposal reflects our approach to creating bespoke homes that respond to their surroundings, celebrate their setting and deliver a high-quality, sustainable living environment.
We look forward to sharing further updates as the project progresses.

This week, Portland State University (@portlandstate) celebrated the grand opening of the new home for the Jordan Schnitzer School of Art + Art History + Design (@psu_artanddesign). Designed by LEVER, the four-story building is the university’s first mass timber structure, bringing Art Practice, Art History, and Graphic Design together under one roof. Located at the southern terminus of Portland’s South Park Blocks, the new facility connects the university with surrounding cultural institutions and the city.
The building incorporates cross-laminated timber floors and a glulam column-and-beam system, with 50 percent of the wood used for the glulam components sourced from regional Tribal enterprises. The design includes classrooms, studios, production and technology labs, galleries, and flexible gathering spaces. A protected outdoor courtyard provides space for creative work and community engagement, while ground-floor galleries along Broadway connect the school’s academic programs with the surrounding community.
The project integrates sustainable building strategies, including an all-electric mechanical system, a fully planted roof, and off-site timber fabrication. Developed through a design process informed by student participation, the building supports interdisciplinary learning, flexible academic spaces, and connections to the surrounding urban landscape.

Stephen Taylor Architects’ new homes on the Golf Links Estate in Ealing, delivered with ECE Architecture for Ealing Council, bring Passivhaus rigor and a quiet civic dignity to fully affordable housing, their warm brick volumes punctuated by cantilevered concrete canopies on paired cylindrical columns that mark each entrance. Within, the lobbies rise along a gentle ramp to the bel étage, curling around a sculpted concrete bench set into sage-green glazed tile, where quarry-tiled floors, raw concrete columns, and luminous globe pendants beneath a perforated ceiling turn the daily act of coming home into a small architectural event.

U/U Studio has completed the first phase of its revitalization of Sady Bratří Čapků in Prague’s Vinohrady district, turning a closed asphalt road through the park into an inclusive, cascading strip of play that leads to the forecourt of Kladská Elementary School. Three color-coded surfaces unfold beneath the park’s mature trees, from a sunny yellow field set with in-ground trampolines and red-lined jumping games to faceted banks, ledges, and rails of rose-pigmented concrete crowned by a multi-sided basketball hoop, giving skaters, scooter riders, and young children a shared stage in the heart of the city.

Waugh Thistleton Architects’ Pavilion of the Moment in Istanbul treats timber as a material of change, stacking just two standard profiles of Turkish Pinus nigra into a six-meter lattice that rises from a red plinth against centuries-old Byzantine brickwork. From the outside a crisp, porous cube, the pavilion opens inside onto a spherical void of stepped timber tiers and an opening to the sky, where red-edged boards and knotted grain catch shifting light and shadow, so that no two moments within it are ever quite the same.

Pavilion of the Moment by Waugh Thistleton Architects in Istanbul explores timber as a material of change, creating a temporary space shaped by movement, light and imperfection.
Built from Turkish Pinus nigra using two standard timber profiles, the 6-meter pavilion forms a simple lattice that creates a cube outside and a sphere within, creating a striking spatial contrast.

Our proposals for the former Pilkington Headquarters explore how this abandoned landmark Grade II listed campus could be transformed into a sustainable, heritage-led residential community.
The scheme combines the retrofit and conversion of the existing buildings with complementary new-build development, exploring different configurations across the campus while responding to its distinctive relationship between architecture, landscape and the lake.
The existing Tower, Courtyard, Lakeside and Museum buildings are reimagined through a range of residential typologies, alongside new homes across the wider site. The proposals also introduce co-working spaces, resident amenities, storage and an on-site energy centre, with the former canteen block explored as a destination health and leisure facility.
A total of 292 homes are proposed, each exceeding National Space Standards, including 19 floating homes at Lakeside East, alongside new landscape, pedestrian and cycle connections designed to strengthen the campus as a connected community.
The proposals look to give new life to the former headquarters while retaining and reinterpreting the character, scale and heritage of the Pilkington campus.

Denizen Works has designed Komorebi, a timber holiday cabin tucked into a clearing in Norfolk`s Swanton Novers woods, wrapping a solid, cork-rendered volume in a veil of coppiced timber posts that echoes the surrounding trees and filters light through to the interior. Inside, dark stained timber, natural clay plasters, and a glowing handmade paper lantern draw on Tanizaki`s In Praise of Shadows to create a warm, shadowed retreat that feels both enclosed and deeply connected to the forest.

Planning permission has been approved for Komorebi, a holiday-let cabin in the Swanton Novers woods, constructed from timber harvested on site and milled at a local, purpose-built workshop.
One of a number of bespoke treehouses on the site, alongside designs by @material_cultures @molearchitects and @hudsonarchitects
Our building occupies a small clearing at the threshold between the dense woodland and the open vista of the ride. The architecture seeks to restore the missing trees in the clearing through a vertically articulated timber veil that wraps the main building, formed from primary timber posts with coppiced infill panels representing the species found within the woodland. This screen helps create a sense of enclosure to the treehouse, filters light and provides shading and privacy. The main accommodation is a simple black form clad in cork render - a solid, enigmatic presence glimpsed through the permeable veil.
The treatment for the interiors is inspired by Jun`ichirō Tanizaki`s essay about Japanese aesthetics, `In Praise of Shadows`, which finds beauty in imperfection, aging, and simplicity through shadows and subdued lighting. Dark stained timber is contrasted with smooth natural clay plasters, while a bespoke paper lantern made from recycled drawings of the project creates a soft warm glow at night.

East @east.architecture.land and HA @takeshi_hayatsu are collaborating on the Neasden Civic Partnership Programme for Brent, funded by the GLA.
In addition to pavement widening, planting (and some signage and art installations with @poor_collective to come later next year) we have just submitted a planning application for a new community building, at the intersection of the north Circular and Neasden Lane. Standing as an independent, pavilion-like building and marking the start of Neasden Shopping Centre, the design is inspired by historic types which functioned as focal landmarks and beacons, such as the Globe Theatre and rotundas, lighthouses and tower houses. The external straw bale walls, with hardwood trims embedded between lime plaster, references Neasden’s heritage, from its village origins to its rapid development following the arrival of the railways.

GRAU Architects’ renovation of Hotel Morava sensitively brings Fuchs’s interwar Functionalist vision into the present while preserving its clarity and connection with nature.

The renovation builds on Fuchs’s original concept of interwar Functionalism, characterised by rationality, clarity of form, and an emphasis on a healthy and hygienic environment. From its inception, the architecture of Zotavovňa Morava reflected a new way of spending leisure time, associated with sport, physical activity, and contact with nature. These principles also became the starting point for its contemporary renewal. The new interventions are therefore not an arbitrary interpretation of historical architecture, but an attempt to make the building’s original idea present again and adapt it to the current needs of its visitors.

Working Title Architects has designed a thoughtfully composed backland family home in Purley, transforming an underused garden into a verdant residential setting. Its steep clay-tiled roof, warm brickwork and lime-rendered elevations reinterpret the area’s Arts and Crafts heritage with crisp contemporary detailing, while carefully balancing privacy, daylight and outlook.
Reposted from @workingtitlearch - always with permission.
We’ve recently submitted planning for a new backland scheme in Purley, South Croydon.
Set within a generous but underutilised garden, the scheme introduces a compact new family home set within a revitalised, verdant landscape. Following a series of in-depth conversations with the Local Authority, the proposals looked to more closely reflect the strong Arts & Crafts character of the local area. This led to the introduction of a bold roof profile, punctuated with architectural elements to create a strong silhouette. The material palette takes cues from the local building stock, with a warm multi-stock brick paired with roughcast lime render and clay tiles. The high-performance building envelope and contemporary detailing help to elevate the scheme, whilst the proposals have been carefully crafted to successfully address concerns regarding privacy, outlook and daylight, which are typical of sites of this type.

Oskar en FELT winnen de BMA-wedstrijd voor de restauratie, renovatie en nieuwbouw van de GO! Academie Beeldende Kunsten en het Atheneum in Anderlecht.
De twee scholen komen samen op één gedeelde campus, die doorheen de jaren is gegroeid en een rijke geschiedenis met zich meedraagt. Door het bestaande zorgvuldig te knippen en waardevolle structuren te behouden, ontstaat ruimte voor meer licht, lucht en nieuwe zichten. Ook de kelderverdieping krijgt zo een nieuwe rol.
Heldere assen en nieuwe verbindingen maken het geheel opnieuw leesbaar en verbinden gebouwen, ateliers en buitenruimtes. Tegelijk wordt de verharde site maximaal onthard en vergroend, met ruimte voor tuinen, pleinen en ontmoetingsplekken. Biodiversiteit, waterinfiltratie en klimaatbestendige beplanting versterken het groene karakter van de campus.
Zo ontstaat een toekomstgerichte leeromgeving waar erfgoed en nieuwe ingrepen elkaar versterken. De Academie en het Atheneum behouden hun eigen identiteit, maar vormen samen één campus die mee kan groeien met haar gebruikers.

Heatherwick Studio has unveiled its design to reawaken the Belvedere, the 1973 terrace poised between downtown Louisville and the Ohio River, letting a long-hardened edge of the city soften into a richly planted park — shade and trees, room to play, room to slow down, nature returning to the middle of things. At its heart rises the Firefly Pavilion, a fan of slender stems tipped with light and drawn from the summer flight of Kentucky`s fireflies: a civic canopy for concerts, for gatherings, for ordinary evenings, opening in 2030 as a place for the city to come together and follow the fireflies.

Revealed: our new design to transform Belvedere, an under-loved public space in downtown Louisville, Kentucky.
At its heart is the Firefly Pavilion, inspired by the dynamic flight of Kentucky’s fireflies.
This distinctive civic structure is designed for everyday community use, as well as larger cultural events.
“It creates a flexible platform for culture, performance and community life, designed to evolve continually with Louisville and its people,” said Stuart Wood, Executive Partner at Heatherwick Studio.
Belvedere originally opened in 1973, positioned between the city’s commercial centre and the Ohio River. Over time, this site became disconnected from city life.
In 2030, it will become “a relaxed and richly planted park, bringing glorious nature back into the heart of downtown,” said Wood.
“More trees and planting provide shade and respite, while generous spaces for play, gathering and relaxation make it a place for every generation to enjoy. A place for Louisville to come together, slow down, discover something unexpected - and follow the fireflies.”

Gabriel Neistein have redesigned the José Paulino threshold of Bom Retiro Commercial Centre as a genuine invitation: a portico that draws the sidewalk inward through a measured sequence of spaces, restoring the porosity Lucjan Korngold gave the complex in 1957. Light brought deeper into the section, cobogó screens filtering the sky, shopfronts brought into a single rhythm, and a gradient of colour unfolding along the walk compose a spatial narrative that recovers the original language of the ensemble and makes arrival itself seamless with architecture.

Designed by Artform Architects, this Energy Centre scheme, granted planning consent as part of a new energy network in south Manchester, reimagines industrial infrastructure as a striking wedge-shaped building that positively contributes to the streetscape while supporting Manchester`s carbon-neutral ambitions. Combining a double-height CHP volume, administrative spaces, a slender chimney, and cylindrical thermal stores, the design offers a fresh architectural typology that will bring low-carbon electricity, heating, and cooling to a diverse community across south Central Manchester.

Taking a look back at our Energy Centre project which we successfully gained planning consent for a few years ago. Sadly it still remains unbuilt but we remain hopeful!
The scheme was designed as part of a planned new energy network in south Manchester, assisting local business and residents in reducing carbon emissions, in line with Manchester City Council’s targets to become carbon neutral by 2038.
The new Energy Centre is a wedge-shaped building that consists of a series of interconnected elements – a double height volume containing the main CHP enclosures and plant space, a smaller single storey volume for administrative use, storage and ancillary plant rooms, a chimney for exhaust gases and three cylindrical thermal stores.
Once built it will supply electricity, heating and cooling, to a diverse group of residents and businesses across a 5 sq.km area in south Central Manchester.
The approach to the project was not only to provide a functional shell for the required plant and infrastructure, but to create a building that would positively contribute to the streetscape and offer a fresh new typology that speaks of it’s use and engages with the community.

Led by ACME, this expansion transforms Robina Town Centre from an inward-facing shopping mall into a vibrant, open-air town center anchored by a striking undulating timber-clad market hall.

Robina, Gold Coast, Australia
Robina is one of Australia’s first and largest planned communities, founded in 1980 alongside the Gold Coast, famous for its beaches, canals, waterways and subtropical rainforest hinterland. Serving the 25,000 residents, Robina Town Centre was originally constructed as an outdoor grouping of urban blocks containing shops and restaurants facing the lake, but this scheme was lost over the years.
The expansion of Robina seeks to turn it from an inward looking shopping centre into an open and urban town centre. The new spaces are unified by an undulating timber-clad roof creating shaded apertures. A series of south-facing notches brings daylight inside with minimal solar gain. Standing seam zinc is used as an external skin.
Inside, the volume evokes a reversed nave, an impression reinforced by the regular ribs and strips of honey-coloured timber. The market hall sits between two large supermarkets and consists of 55 new traders dedicated to celebrating local/regional production.
The market hall spills out onto a flowing, stepped landscaped area accessible from a new car park, providing a water feature and lush planting.

This competition project by NP2F in collaboration with Lauka Architects reimagines the GO! Académie Anderlecht art school as a striking dialogue between industrial heritage and contemporary design, weaving new glass-and-marble volumes, a folded terracotta roofscape, and a rooftop garden into the site`s existing brick warehouses and towers. The result is a vibrant, light-filled campus where soaring studio spaces, sheltered courtyards, and elevated terraces create an inspiring home for students and artists alike.

Studio by Three has created Noor Café, a striking contemporary landmark set within the historic urban fabric, defined by a monumental terracotta volume that reinterprets the traditional oasis courtyard. Sheltering a serene, palm-filled public space where architecture, climate, and community converge, the project offers a timeless yet bold addition to Dubai`s streetscape.

Noor Café is conceived as a contemporary landmark within the historic fabric of the city. Defined by a monumental terracotta volume, the project reinterprets the traditional oasis by framing a sheltered public courtyard where architecture, climate, and community come together.
